Hi all! This is my first post on the forum, and I look forward to sharing ideas with you. I am typesetting a long book, and we split it into 2 volumes. This raises the following questions: I assume these two books are called volumes, correct? Since the chapter numbering continues from one volume to the next (e.g., 1-10 in vol. 1, then 11-20 in vol. 2), should the page numbering continue too (e.g., 1-400 in vol. 1, then 401-800 in vol. 2)? In vol. 1, the page numbering of the front matter is in Roman numerals. What about vol. 2? Should the tables of content in both volumes be identical (i.e., contain everything in both volumes)? There will be an index. Does this affect the answer to #2? Should the entire index be placed at the end of both volumes? Does CMOS discuss this? I could not find it. I am grateful to my colleagues for their assistance. Yours, Eliyahu
